Description

Leaving Amsterdam behind, I pedaled towards the modern metropolis of Rotterdam. The city's futuristic architecture, including the Cube Houses and Erasmus Bridge, gave me a taste of contemporary Dutch design. The bustling Markthal offered a feast for the senses with its diverse culinary offerings. Additional Information: Rotterdam is known for its modern architecture, and the Cube Houses were designed by architect Piet Blom. The innovative design and tilted structure make them a symbol of Rotterdam's avant-garde spirit.
